Toolpost are dealer in uk so would know (plus carry pretty much whole range ex stock).

Really enjoy Stuart’s videos. A real professional, very info dense and no frills. Excellent series.

I've been looking to find a plan to make m33x3.5 chuck hubs like these. My CAD skills done extend to the external thread - anyone seen a suitable file on line? (Thinking of plastic only - to store chucks / faceplates on wall - screws through middle will provide sufficient strength) Simon...

Paul. Really enjoyed your demo at the weekend - especially being brave enough to live demo ring tools! Also, thanks to you and Pat for all the work you’re putting into the on line meet turner series too, hugely enjoying these amd a great initiative C19 has resulted in. Many thanks and keep up...

Can’t add to the import duty debate but would say that if we are able, given current climate, buying local via UK dealers does feel like the right and good thing to do. May be a couple of quid more but long term is a worthwhile collective investment.

Nice work Derek, thanks for sharing. Lines into black top are very nice too.

While we’re all on lock down Over last week or so kids and SWMBO took opportunity to come out to workshop and learn to do some turning. My daughter particularly enjoyed the decoration / pyrography. Fun project anyway. Simon

And with a squirt of colour. Worked ok for first try. Can see it becoming addictive! Thanks of course to the wonderful late Binh Pho for the inspiration- think his work and legacy is safe at moment though! Simon

Texturing done now, masked up ready for colour.

FFS guys, really! Not sure you’ve understood what’s going on. Getting some timber for hobby / home projects is not an essential task. I’ll not add anything to this thread from here on but as part of day job I’m trying to arrange who should / should not may have to live at a power station...

Not sure they pass the ‘essential’ test for either their staff to be key workers and thus be exposed to the risk or for us to warrant leaving house to make trip.

Folks Lock down is good time to have a go at some pieces that need a bit of patience! Having a go at form with piercing and will have some coloured panels. Simon

This is the OCD friendly version, you should have seen it before the tidy up! Nice thing about Woodturning, not many 8x4 sheets needed! I have some racking in the garage with timber on so just grab a piece for what I’m going to make and bring it in as needed. (I have chainsaw and small...

Hi folks. We all like a good nose around other people’s workshops so let’s have a look. I’ve filmed a tour round mine, would love to see yours! https://youtu.be/tvZmgLoitu4 Simon

Really nice piece. Attention to rim and design is spot on and sets the apart from the norm. Thanks for sharing. Simon

Item 3 is part of a tape measure used to see how long things are before cutting too much off.

For spindle work a record twin bar lathe could be a way to go. Buy anyone used then order bed bars from a steel stockiest to suit your needs.

Can you get over to stroud? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/it ... 822283431/ Looks mainly softwood but at £40 / tonne you’ll have all the spindle / mini side grain practice you can take: Bottle stops, light pulls, door wedges, salt scoops, pen blanks, mini bird houses, carrier bag...

.....not my Q boss but OP will read I’m sure!

Dave, Quite a few similar posts to this recently. Perhaps give the ‘advanced search’ option a go and come back with Any specifics? Also, other key advice is to visit an awgb club. S
